WORD DEFINITION
RWARNING
CAUTION
NOTE
Personal injury, fire hazard or electric shock
may occur.
If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk
of personal injury, fire or electric shock.
Equipment damage may occur.

r
R WARNING! NEVER hold the transceiver so that the
antenna is very close to, or touching exposed parts of the
body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting. The
transceiver will perform best if the microphone is 5 to 10 cm
away from the lips and the transceiver is vertical.
R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver with a
headset or other audio accessories at high volume levels.
Hearing experts advise against continuous high volume op-
eration. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the
volume level or discontinue use.
NEVER short the terminals of the battery pack. Also, cur-
rent may flow into nearby metal objects, such as a necklace,
etc. Therefore, be careful when carrying with, or placing
near metal objects, carrying in handbags, etc.
NEVER use of non-Icom battery packs/chargers to prevent
the loss of the transceiver’s good performance and warranty.
DO NOT allow children to play with any radio equipment
containing a transmitter.
DO NOT operate the transceiver near unshielded electri-
cal blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere.
DO NOT using or placing the transceiver in direct sunlight
or in areas with temperatures below –20°C or above +55°C.
KEEP the transceiver away from the heavy rain, and
NEVER immerse it in the water. The transceiver construc-
tion is water resistant, not waterproof.

t Set the desired frequency using [Y]/[Z] keys or keypad.
y When a signal is received on the set frequency:
• “ ” indicator appears.
• Squelch opens and audio is emitted from the speaker.
When squelch setting is too “tight” (large number setting),
squelch may not open for weak signals. To receive weaker
signals, loosen (small number setting) the squelch.
n Transmitting
q Set the desired frequency using [Y]/[Z] or keypad
(IC-A15 only).
w Push and hold [PTT] to transmit.
• “ ” indicator appears.
e Speak into the microphone at a normal voice level.
DO NOT hold the transceiver too close to your mouth or speak
too loudly. This may distort the signal.
r Release [PTT] to return to receive.
NOTE: About Time-Out-Timer function
For the prevention of prolonged transmission, etc., ac-
cording to regulatory requirements, the IC-A15/S has a
Time-Out-Timer function. This timer cuts a transmission
OFF after the set time period of continuous transmission.
The time-out timer is specified in set mode. See page 23
for details.
CAUTION: Transmitting without an antenna may damage
the transceiver.
NOTE: To prevent interference, listen on the frequency
before transmitting. If the frequency is busy, wait until the
channel is clear.
